The only reason they are able to sell them so cheap is because the company that makes bayliner also manufactures sea ray lowe and a bunch of other brands including manufacturing mercury motors so they absolutely can afford to lose money or break even on bayliner in order to get people out on the water thats why they are so affordable but they are deffinently not bad boats

I think they’ve done quite a bit to improve the build quality in recent years.

Ask Don White. He traded down from his Bayliner recently.

You must be a new Bayliner owner.

The sad thing is they are really a nice design boat. Just made very
cheaply. Thin glasswork, etc. when you can push on the sides and get
movement, the longevity of a boat will not be a long time if any rough
water.

At one point, way back when, I was considering a Bayliner Trophy. I called the
dealer in Seattle to talk about prices, etc. He strongly suggested I consider
upgrading the engine to an Evinrude instead of the Force which was standard.
When I asked him why, his response was, "Well, the Force is basically a
'throw-away' engine."

That convinced me I didn't want a Bayliner.

Just when I was hoping to never see another Bayliner thread here. :-)
At least it's about boating.

My neighbor across the canal has a 20 something CC with twin outboards
on it. He's had it for a while and seems happy with it. Would I want
to take it 50 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico? Heck no, that's not
what it's designed and built for. We have a lot of inshore water here
however and it seems fine for that.

Just don't ask his opinion for a new purchase.Â* His reliance on
salespeople has cost him a lot every time he got screwed.
